“While the library is still a place for students to access books and articles or consult with a librarian, it is also a place where they can transform an idea into physical form on a laser cutter, 3D printer or sewing machine.”
-Jill Markgraf, professor and director of libraries at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire.
